From the Back Cover
The comprehensive, unified, up-to-date guide to transport and separation processes
Today, chemical engineering professionals need a thorough understanding of momentum, heat, and mass transfer processes, as well as separation processes. Transport Processes and Separation Process Principles, Fourth Edition offers a unified and up-to-date treatment of all these topics. Thoroughly updated to reflect the field's latest methods and applications, it covers both fundamental principles and practical applications.
Part 1 covers the essential principles underlying transport processes: momentum transfer; steady-state and unsteady-state heat transfer; and mass transfer, including both unsteady-state and convective mass transfer. Part 2 covers key separation processes, including evaporation, drying, humidification, absorption, distillation, adsorption, ion exchange, extraction, leaching, crystallization, dialysis, gas membrane separation, reverse osmosis, filtration, ultrafiltration, microfiltration, settling, centrifugal separation, and more. This edition's extensive updates and enhancements include:
- A more thorough coverage of momentum, heat, and mass transport processes
- Detailed new coverage of separation process applications
- Greatly expanded coverage of momentum transfer, including fluidized beds and non-Newtonian fluids
- More detailed discussions of mass transfer, absorption, distillation, liquid-liquid extraction, and crystallization
- Extensive new coverage of membrane separation processes and gas-membrane theory
Transport Processes and Separation Process Principles, Fourth Edition also features more than 240 example problems and over 550 homework problems reflecting the field's current methods and applications.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Good for separations techniques,
By
This review is from: Transport Processes and Separation Process Principles (Includes Unit Operations) (4th Edition) (Hardcover)
The only review that I can give for the text would be for the separations sections, of which our class concentrated mainly on the distillation regime. Excellent structured pairing of chapter labeling with homework and example problems. Open-ended problems required a sufficient level of engineering skills.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Best Chemical Engineering Book I've Had,
This review is from: Transport Processes and Separation Process Principles (Includes Unit Operations) (4th Edition) (Hardcover)
This book is by far the best and most thorough chemical engineering book we used at my university. Every chapter redefines variables it uses instead of you having to reference 8 chapters back to remember what a particular variable is. The book does a remarkable job of taking a very complicated subject and making it seem as easy as can it could possibly be. This book saved me in school and, as I said, is without a doubt the best text book we used during undergrad.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Amazing book. This book is all you need.,
By RacemicMixture "Chemical Engineer" (Pittsburgh, PA, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Transport Processes and Separation Process Principles (Includes Unit Operations) (4th Edition) (Hardcover)
This book is all you need for an undergraduate course in transport processes and/or separation processes. It is well illustrated and the problems are very demonstrative. Its a must have for the chemical engineering student.
